Katherine Mercy, MD, FAAD, FACMS
Dr. Mercy specializes in Mohs micrographic surgery, a specialized, highly effective technique used to track and remove cancerous roots. The goal of Mohs surgery is to remove as much of the skin cancer as possible while doing minimal damage to surrounding healthy tissue. It is recognized as the skin cancer treatment with the highest cure rate – up to 99%, as compared to a cure rate of 85% to 92% for standard skin cancer surgery.
She is thrilled to return to the western suburbs of Chicago, where she grew up, to provide this specialized service to this community.
